is anyone getting called for interviews? It sounds like after this initial class in May, the next one won't be until June/July time frame.

I heard a rumor that a large number of newer hires have left FedEx since January. Anyone know if that is true?

If one would go to CGN and you take your wife and kid, how many days a month are you actually in CGN? Once you start on a pairing do you come back to CGN or are you out for the week? Same for HKG?

Typically on the road about half the time, barring Reserve in domicile.

Cargo is the exact opposite of the Pax carriers. Pax flight sequences cycle through the domicile, with some planes staying in the field. Cargo planes exact opposite, stay in the field with brief stays in domicile.

Early morning\late afternoon the ramp is empty in Memphis

Look for us to slowly contract in the years to come.
Where do you get your facts from?

In 4 months you seem to be an expert in many things on many different forums! Has momma called you up out of the basement for dinner yet?

I have an application on file with Fedex and my sponsor told me that I have to select from my references on my application who my sponsor is. Anyone know how I select who my sponsor is from my selection of references? I sent an email to pilot credentials and I have not received a response yet.

A "large number" of new hires leaving since January???? We haven't hired a "large number" in quite awhile!

Clarification, pax carriers often cycle through HUBS, not necessarily THE DOMICILE.

Start sequence on day 1, cycle through the OTHER DOMICILES/HUBS, return to your OWN domicile the last day.

Even some Pax Europe/Asia trips so this with "W's".
